TL;DR
A new genetic mutation in maize prevents silk growth, offering a novel way to control pollination useful for baby corn breeding.
Contribution
A single-gene mutation is identified that inhibits silk growth in maize, providing a novel genetic approach to pollination control.
Findings
A single-gene mutation inhibits maize silk growth.
This mutation offers a novel genetic approach to control pollination.
It has potential application in baby corn breeding.
Abstract
